VINTAGE MOTO X




I RODE SOME 70'S 2 STROKE SUZUKI'S A COUPLE OF WEEKENDS AGO AND I'M HOOKED. THE EARLY SWING ARM SUSPENSION WORKS GREAT,IT HAS A LITTLE SIDE SIDE ACTION AND YOU CAN REALLY FEEL THE TRACK. SURE.. I CAN CATCH AIR EASIER AND GO A LITTLE FASTER ON A MODEREN BIKE,BUT IT'S WAY COOLER BEING ABLE TO HANG ON A OLDER BIKE. THIS ERA IS WHEN MOTO X WAS IN IT'S INFANCY. NOTHING WAS PROVEN,JUST LOOK AT THEIR SAFETY EQUIPMENT... TO ME THIS IS WHEN IT WAS PURE. JUST GETTIN RADICAL MAN...


ON THE NOD...

I LIKEY..

BE FORWORNED!!

THIS WEEKEND WE WERE PROTECTED AND CURSED BY THE CHOPPER GODS. THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS. CHRIS'S SHITTY RISER'S COMPLETELY SNAPPED OFF AT 65 MPH. DO NOT BY SHITTY MOTORCYCLE PARTS!!! ALWAYS CHECK THE QUALITY OF PARTS!! WE TOOK IT FOR GRANTED,AND CHRIS ALMOST PAID WITH HIS LIFE!! LUCKELY HE MADE IT OFF THE ROAD. THESE WERE CHEAP ASS "ZINCO" RISERS. THAT'S WHY THE VINTAGE PARTS ARE WAY BETTER THAN SOME NEW BULLSHIT CRAP. MANY SAFE MILE'S AND SMILE'S TO YOU ALL!!!

200 MILES IN 12 HOURS. "DAY OF RECKONING"

SO ME AND ANGELO START OUT AROUND 8 AM. MEAN AS SNAKES.
MEET UP AT DIAMOND DAVES.

AS ALWAYS,ADMIRING HIS CHOPPER GLORY. LITTLE DID WE KNOW THE CHOPPER GODS WERE FROWNING UPON US THIS DAY.


I LOVE STICKERS,SO DOES DAVE.



WE FINALLY GET GOIN AND CHRIS ALMOST DIES.




HEY MA!!





NO HANDLEBARS!!






WE DEAL WITH THIS ROAD SIDE FIX FOR HOURS. ANGELO KEPT LAYING IN A DITCH,THEN I REALIZED HE LOOKED LIKE A DEAD BODY ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD,AS DID THE PEOPLE WHO DROVE BY. MORE MOTORISTS STOPPED THAN BIKER'S. BIG DOG'S AND GOLDWING'S BLASTED PAST US.







BACK ON THE ROAD,PARANOID.








THIS CAT STOPPED,HUNG OUT TILL THE JOB WAS DONE. WE THINK THIS DUDE WAS A GUARDIAN ANGEL SENT FROM THE CHOPPER GODS. AS HE MYSTERIOUSLY VANISHED AFTER WE FIXED EVERYTHING. I'M SURPRISED HE SHOWED UP ON FILM.









ALMOST THERE. ANGELO'S BIKE CAME IN HANDY,BLASTING TO GET PARTS IN RECORD TIME.










ARE WE THERE YET,OVER THE SHOULDER PIC.











FINALLY WE MEET UP WITH THE X-WINO'S. AT PAUL'S AWESOME BIKE SHOP.












GRINGO,MAN OF THE HOUR'S. HE WAITED TILL WE GOT THERE. THEN THEY SPLIT. WE DIDN'T GO,HAD TO FIX MORE SHIT AT PAUL'S SHOP.













PAUL AND GRINGO HELPING OUT.














PAUL'S SHOP. HE LET US USE WHATEVER WE NEEDED TO GET CHRIS'S BIKE ON THE ROAD. RIGHTEOUS DUDE.















FINALLY WE START BACK TO SAINT PAUL. ALOT OF OTHER MECHANICAL DIFFICULTY'S PLAGUED US,LIKE DAVE REBUILDING SOME OF HIS MAGNETO IN THE GAS STATION PARKING LOT,CHRIS'S BATTERY DIEING. ME BEING UP FOR 40 HOURS AND BURNT I DIDN'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT ANYMORE PICTURE'S. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A CRAZY DAY,I HAD FUN. THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT,PAYING CHOPPER DUES. I GOT TO HANG OUT WITH MY FRIEND'S RIDING OR SITTING ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. IT'S ALL APART OF THE EXPERIENCE. MY SHOVEL RAN LIKE A TOP,WHICH I AM GRATEFUL FOR. IT WAS A GOOD DAY!!!
